What Distinguishes Crosspoint from Other Churches?
When looking for a new church home, what should you be looking for?
A church needs to be a spiritual home. And like any good home, you need some excellent leadership.
1) Leadership
First, you need to have mature leadership. The pastors and leadership team need to be an example of spiritual maturity, 1 Timothy 3:1–6. They also need to be demonstrating biblical love, 1 Corinthians 13:4–8.
2) Teaching
Second, the teaching pastor should be gifted in helping people understand God’s word and apply it to their life. Each Sunday morning is a teaching time from God’s word. You will receive a message outline in your bulletin and be able to follow the message presentation on a large projector screen. You will also have access to the message notes online so you can follow along and take notes on any mobile device.
3) Spiritual growth
Third, the number one responsibility of every home is to help their children grow up and become healthy adults. Every church needs a clear process of how they are developing people to become mature disciples for Christ. If the church cannot demonstrate a clear process for spiritual growth, you should find another church.
At Crosspoint, we believe that the greatest responsibility of the church is to develop your spiritual life. So we use the following steps to accomplish this:
101 – discovering what it means to be a member of Crosspoint.
201 – discovering the 4 disciplines for spiritual growth.
301 – discovering your spiritual gifts and where you can serve.
401 – discovering how to be an effective witness for Jesus Christ.
Note: These classes do not have to be taken in order.
